- Car FOUND While Police Investigate Steven MacKrell Missing Persons Case In this video we search for missing person Steven MacKrell after he went missing from a local gas station.
Steven MacKrell was a father for his daughter Skylar, a son, a boyfriend, a brother; a man who had many people who loved him. 4 years ago, he vanished.
"I dream sometimes that he's coming home," said his mom Astrid MacKrell. "He's knocking on the door, I'm going to open the door and he's there. I just hope those dreams will come true. I'm still looking of him."
His mom drives around with "missing posters" taped to her car, hoping someone will give her information.
On evening of July 29th, Steven had drinks with one of this brothers and a friend at Lucky's Tavern downtown Fort Lauderdale.
Then, the last place he was seen was at a gas station at Sample Road and Dixie Highway in Pompano Beach in the early morning of July 30th of 2015. He was buying snacks.
A little later, surveillance video captured him again, it appeared there was some type of verbal altercation.
"There he had a conversation with some people in a car," said Astrid. "And those people, they left and my son threw a can toward the car. And I guess that got them upset."
Police say surveillance video captured a picture of a passenger who was in that car. More surveillance video shows that same car take off after Steven pulled out.
His girlfriend, Alisha Carr, the woman he shared a child with, wants to know what happened next.
"Maybe they ran him off the road and he went into a lake," she wondered. "I'm so uncertain because there's so many different scenarios I've thought about."
Police have checked on that, but found nothing.
"We searched almost 200 bodies of water in and around the Pompano Beach area looking for any sign of MacKrell or his vehicle," said Fort Lauderdale Police Spokeswoman Casey Liening.
The family knows the outlook is bleak, but just wants to know for certain what happened.
"They probably murdered him because where is he?" asked Astrid. "I forgive them," she said. "I have forgiven them and I pray for their salvation, that one day they come to know Christ and one day they will step for the truth of what happened." #coldcase #missingperson #scubadiving

Car FOUND While Police Investigate Steven MacKrell Missing Persons Case
Gotta love the attitude on the first Fire/Rescue guy. Any public official worried about being on camera is probably an issue.
Not always. They could have beliefs like me and "Thouh Shalt Not Make any Graven Images".
I turn tail when I see a camera coming at me.
@@carriebaker5161 you should look up the definition of graven image
@@PackinGravs I live in Amish/Mennonite/Charity central. Trust me, I know what it means.
@@carriebaker5161 there are cameras in stores and in public places. So do you just stay home? 😂
You would think someone is looking for HIM, hey?
Here's a tip; (based on personal experience), my neighbor disappeared & the only clue to her whereabouts was her German Shepherd pacing the road, miles from her house. One side of the road had a field, the other a guard rail/cliff below descending to a steep canyon. Searchers were hesitant to search there because they believed that the Guard rail made it an impossibility for her car to have gone over. A lone searcher on Horseback decided to check the sides of the Canyon anyway.. Sadly, she was found there near the bottom of the Canyon; (ejected from her SUV).😔 Her Dog must have also been ejected, (he was not hurt). She suffered a stroke, & they think she passed out/died with her foot on the gas pedal before the car went over. There were no marks on the Guard Rail (that I could see), at least at the area of her Memorial💐. Moral of this story; check even those areas WITH Guard rails, and some rails went up AFTER that individual disappeared. btw I'm glad you guys are not giving up having a search/recovery type channel after all the controversy. The more people there are out there searching, the better!
The fire department guys need to Learn better respect for others. WOW sad. God bless y'all for what y'all do.
Imagine if a god blessed us to not need any first responders 😈
Broward County is a cesspool of corruption and bad government.
Acted like it was a big deal to do his JOB!! Jerk!!!!
Yes most definitely. These guys are doing their job & helping locate missing persons & the "authorities" act soo inconvenienced
To be honest, I think he just was not in the mood of having a camera shoved in his face. I think he just thought, f… it, let me do my job, and keep the show-business away.
Brit, I am confused about the way those guys approached the situation. When one of them said that there was no evidence of a car going in, I started to lose it. After 4 years there isn't going to be any evidence. Apparently, they did realize that situation was above their pay grade and called the guys in who could handle it better. It looked like it didn't take long for them to get things done. Nice job guys. Keep up the good work. Be safe.
Yeh 4 yrs is alot of growth in trees and plants too omg crazy talking there
If you noticed, the first group to arrive was firefighters, they responded in with lights flashing. Dispatch more then likely did not understand the circumstance as dispatched the call as a “car in the water” thinking it just happened. That’s probably why the firefighter sad he saw no tire traces or evidence of a car in the water.
@@donaldpoole2995 I know. They just acted unconcerned.
@@vernadevney3089 what’s to be concerned about? No tracks, no brush push out of the way. Seems the Fire Officer was sizing up the incident as they were rolling in. Had there been any tell-tail signs it would have been a lot different. Serious, not picking on you, (I have 42 years in a very large department in fire service) as a person of the public how would you have approached the incident? I’m being very serious, we see things one way, the public sees it in a different light. As a teachable moment, what could the firefighters have done to seem concerned? I constantly tell my people, YOU in the eyes of the public are the department. Your actions, tone of your voice, questions you ask reflect back on the department. I watched the video, so we saw the same thing, I think we can agree with the units running code, they at first may have thought this just happened, the officer of the unit is trained to start looking for information as they roll in. They did not know four years had past, they had no idea anyone was out on the water looking. The situation was not above their pay grade, just not an emergency for
them, once they learned the history, its a police issue. So again, not at all instigating, but learning, in your opinion how should they have acted?
@@donaldpoole2995 Thank you for the explanation. Thank you for your service. The dispatcher sent the wrong people.
Im sorry its not his car but please, dont ever stop looking for these people! Sometimes, its the only hope these families have to hold on too. Thank you guys!
Once we start later this year, we are essentially doing East of the Mississippi River, unless it's a bigger case and we are helping other groups.
How rude of the fire and rescue guy 😮 your taking your time to help and do everything you can to be spoken to like that! Shocking. Keep up the great work 👍🏻
Glad you are doing what you do, it could help a family get some peace to know where their loved ended up, or isn't there, the response from the local law enforcement officers was rude arrogant and unprofessional, they should welcome any assistance from the public that they can get.
I agree with you. If it's the missing man from 2015, of course you won't see tire tracks. Keep doing what you are both doing. 👏
Those first EMTs that came out just didn’t want to do anything. You can’t see where a car might have gone in after 8 years.
That's the truth!
That "Could you get that camera out of my face" guy was a real jerk. He was afraid he would have to do some work for a change. There is always one who gives the rest of them a bad name.
I think they thought they were coming out on a rescue, rather than a recovery. They had to be thinking it was a life saving mission to have acted that way...
That's the issue, There is nothing they could have done. It's not an emergency. It's not the fire department's job unless the accident just happened. It's a POLICE issue, don't bash the fire service because the firefighter indicated no tire marks. It's not that they did not want to do anything, they had nothing to do, it's NOT AN EMERGENCY ANY LONGER, it's a RECOVERY, a police matter. What would you say if your grandmother was down the street in a car accident and had a heart attack and died because the fire unit that would have responded was diving on a cold case car in the water, ugh..
@@donaldpoole2995 firefighters on a truck would not be the ones diving, thus would be free to attend to your mythical grandmother. Your scenario is quite flawed.
How rude the first fire responder was! Such a shame for sure. I guess he doesn't realize he works for the public. Great job finding these lost people and reuniting them with their families. Thank you for what you do and have done!
No body was found! Just an old car that was ditched and that why the cops were rude! He called in like he found the missing guy but didn’t and like the cops said there wouldn’t be any bushes or anything, when a vehicle goes through any brush there’s a clear trail. Obviously you guys haven’t been taught the story about the boy who cried wolf.
Brit, please dive the cars first next time. Confirm they are the cars which you seek. Let Law Enforcement/Fire Department gripe afterwards. You got treated badly! I so wanted you guys to be correct. Don't give up! You will find him! Thanks for continuing to search!
Hey, Britain. I'd hoped that interactions like these, with local services and LE, had disappeared altogether but sadly it is not the case. I wholeheartedly support your efforts in trying to solve cold cases and removing vehicles from the water. My thanks to you, Mike and your videographer Grace for making and sharing this footage. Stay healthy and safe 👍4x⭐️
May the memories of love outweigh the grief of loss.
Stay safe and keep diving
The first Fire Rescue guy that arrived has an attitude problem!!! He didn't act at all like he cared about the situation!!! I would not want him involved in my case if I were missing!!!
exactly
They were quite rude the way they approached you guys, geez. Keep up the great work! Don't let them discourage you! You guys are amazing!!
Brit, I enjoy you searching with Mike. He gets as excited as you do when you find a car. I am also following his YT channel now. You make a great team.
Thank you so much
The Fire Department guys sure seemed like assholes. You guys do a great service in bring closure for family. Keep up the good work
Good job guys for finding a car. I’m so sorry it wasn’t him. Thanks for trying and sharing this video.
Please don’t let these negative people discourage you. Your here for the families. Your doing all the right things. For them to say there are no tire tracks like it happened yesterday was ridiculous. Stay strong.
I believe the first responders where upset because they where thinking that this was a fresh accident scene. Maybe you could let the dispatcher know that these calls your making are not emergency and you are working a cold case.
Loved working with you brother
Good job. Every place searched is another place he isn't.
Nice job, guys. It's maddening, the gross amount of arrogance and attitude from those guys! And the way the diver read the license plate had my head spinning.
Brit, please tell Mike to tie that boat down! Regardless of how short of a drive or the rate of speed. If he was to ever get in an accident, that could go airborne and kill someone!
I'll definitely tell him and we usually put a bunjee around it
The way they read the license plates is standard for law enforcement and government agencies to prevent confusing between letters. They all understand this alphabet. I had to memorize and use it, too, when I was a wildland firefighter.
@@VisionaryGardener Yikes! Wildland FF? That's awesome! You would think they'd use the police phonetic alphabet S= Sam vs. international "Sierra". Which, off the bat, sounds like a C "si" as in the name Ciara. I've been working alongside police for 18 years and I have never heard SIERRA. Whoever thought that list up were real jerks. LOL
I am so sorry how you were treated by the Fire department! Some of them were rude, totally rude. I have read other comments, and it doesn't have to be what you say, your body language and what you don't say can be just as telling.
That could be someone's loved one in there, at least the police took you seriously.
Don't let them get you down Brit, and keep up the good work x
You and your team do such incredible work! So happy to see you are busy and back at it!
Great Job!!! Love the way you show us the sonar so clearly so we feel like we are searching too!
What happened with the 2nd car ? Did they look for it too ?
Thanks for all you do!!!
You guys are probably the last hope for many families searching for answers. The majority of these cold cases get lost to hands of time and life goes on. Thats why the work you guys are doing is so important. Good luck and stay safe.
“Can you get the camera outta my face?” This guy was already angry. If the car went into the water in 2015, the evidence would’ve gone away after time. Mother Nature took care of it.
Was thinking the same thing
They acted like they wanted a car to be there but they didn’t want to go in there because they thought it was a Fresh Accident, not one that happened Years ago! It was like they didn’t care about someone that was missing from a long time ago? Sad!
lots of crime in Broward County, you can see why
I thought the men with the fire department were extremely unprofessional and rude. Very sad.
Maybe he was angry because he was enjoying his coffee and donuts and had to leave them☕🥯
I was a little disappointed by the initial response from the FD. Glad you continue to help people find answers and clean the environment.
Well you found 2 cars? getting 1 out is a win win , fairly clean Galant and not as crappy as some taken out.
Keeping the faith Brit and very nice to see Grace again. Well done to you all and keep safe.
At least you improve the environment well done great work you guys do
What about the other car that was there also? PLease keep looking for Steven , he is there somewhere close by.. You could tell by the video of him in the store that he was intoxicated and if he was being chased he couldn't of gotten far without wrecking. Every Car found has a story.. as viewers we would love to know what the story is for each car that is found.
Thank you for all the work you do Brit. Thank you for bringing in Mike and promoting his organization as well.
Thanks for looking for the lost!! Keep doing what you do!!!
Love the sheriff team how they are willing to help and they aren’t scarred of the camera unlike the fire team. Keep up the amazing work you are doing help bring families love one’s home.
Britain great video and I'm glad to see that you brought Grace and Mike with you this is a very very good stream that you're doing and thank God for you and Mike and Grace for looking for this gentleman that you're looking for you guys are awesome amazing fantastic and God bless you all for doing this thank you for doing this as well 🤎🤎
They gonna be unhappy because of the time and resources waisted for you calling this in, but I'm glad you do what you do, even if 1 family gets clarity or have 1 case resolved, it will be worth a 100 misses. And you put a lot of your own time, money, and work, while they get paid from taxpayers' money to serve the community. Many blessings to you and those that surround you, great job. 👍🏽
They could have used Brit to dive first no cost to the department
Why would they be mad? The car could have been involved in a different kind of case AND it’s bad for the environment to leave a car in the water. They’d rather remove it if they can.
@Josephine Miller thank you for your clear headed thinking.. not a dumping ground...
@@GX-FAFO did I say it was a dumping ground? I did not.
@@josephinemiller4780 nope. I never implied that..
Britain, if you and Mike are ever up in Central FL, Robert Heikka is also missing.
While he is from Port Orange, his last phone ping was reported near the intersection of I-4 and S.R. 44 by the fair grounds in Deland. There are several ponds and a lake along the road right near there that I’m not sure if they have been searched yet.
So glad he was found, and by Mike!❤
Great job guys
Many many thanks Brit and all for everything you do ❤❤❤
I want you to know that I appreciate you doing what you are doing.
Hello Britain,
That has to be hard for you too, very stressful. Sorry for the family. With your words more diving teams will help!
Hope you, your families, friends, and fans are having a wonderful New Year!
Take care, be safe, and peace out!
Keep up the great work you guys are doing . That rescue guy has a little attitude problem
Hey Britain! I’m sorry that wasn’t the car you were looking for, but at least that’s one spot the family doesn’t have to worry about. It doesn’t make it any easier though. I hope someone will be able to find him!! Question…what happened with the other vehicle you guys found near the one that was pulled out? I must have missed something.
THANKS FOR DOING THIS,🤗 you made a gallant effort, and your efforts are appreciated 👍💚💚💚
Brit love your videos you describe everything your doing so well. Keep up the great work you do. You guys make a great team !
Be safe
I lived in Pompano Beach for about 7 months, on a houseboat at Holiday Inn off A1A and Orleans Inn now Knights Inn on Federal in 1988. Got in with wrong crowd and moved back home to TN. I can’t believe how those people treated you. It’s a shame that your out there trying to find people who have been lost for a while now because they didn’t do their job and treat you that way for doing yours. ♥️❤️🥰♥️❤️ Thanks Brit
I’m glad you and Mike are keeping this story going. I hope he’s found.
I would have thought first that you gentlemen would have dived on it to clear it first by license plate, then let the police know they are down there. If no one was in the vehicles, they could remove them with training for their dive teams.
Really hope you find the guy you’re looking for. It’s been so long. He needs to come home and be laid to rest and to give his family some peace. ❤
Given the circumstances of the case involving foul play the dive team mentioned they'd rather have their own divers dive on the vehicles in their city
@@depthsofhistory Totally understand. ❤️ Keep up the great work you two have been doing. ❤️
I am so astonished by the lack of interest by the “professionals” that arrived on the scene. Maybe they thought it was a “just happened” crash or maybe that’s how it was relayed to them so rescue wasn’t needed? 🤷♀️ At least law enforcement acted on this and there was clarification.
Do you ever get follow up on cars that get pulled even if they aren't the ones you were looking for? Also, you said there was another car next to that one, what happened with it?
Great job, guys (and Grace)!
That underwater camera Mike had worked great. Continue searching and helping families👏
Thank you so much
Great job again. Too bad the fire department guys were so rude to you. Hopefully we can change that. Public servants should be polite and respectful no matter how they feel personally.
It's good training for the different emergency services and working with you both
Proud off you guys at what you have achieved especially with the difficulties you all had not that long ago,it’s awesome to see all of you together except one Doug but hey so happy to see you all in what you do best,love from Bangor Northern Ireland ❤️❤️🎂❤️
"Get that camera out of my face" really he has no expectation of privacy in public and don't let people treat you or talk to you that way if someone gets ignorant to you then give it rite back
Surprised law enforcement didn’t check the trunk!
Keep searching! ❤❤❤❤❤watching your videos! Thanks and have a great day!
Would be nice to have closure on this case, great try and find ! Stay safe!
What rude, disrespectful arses they were ! No wonder no-one gets found if that's their attitude. They need to realise that the job they do does NOT make then gods, better than anyone else or entitled. Good on you for hanging in there.
Thank you, again, fir your work and dedication, and remember that you simply bringing attention to the cases helps people to keep a lookout and to not forget.
Why did you decide to search before daylight...is it possible to view the sonar better in recently undisturbed waters?
At least they took you seriously in the end...Any word on why that vehicle was in the water (w/ keys in the ignition)?
Have a safe and fruitful trip with CD & Josh!
Broward County should be ashamed of their pompous sheriffs. Awesome work Brit.
Hey hey its the Gambler after dark. New friend. Love this stuff 🤗♥️🇺🇸
Nice camera work…you guys are developing well!👍👍
Good job. Even if it wasn’t the car you were searching for, but another one out of the water.
I love his little boat, has wheels and small enough to get into small areas.
Nothing like getting the fire department down there and they get pissed off for having to do their job.
Nobody mentioned it was a fresh scene and these guy's show up and getting pissed off for having to do a job. At least the police cared to do their job 💕
I thought there were 2 cars. What happened to the second? You guys do so much good. Thanks for having such big hearts.
Britain glad you are still work the cases. Love to see y’all get with the others.
Thank you so much
Thank you Brit and others who have been trying to find this missing loved one. You guys be safe.
Interesting to me how they are all authorities on what it would look like if a car went in there... Do they not know whom they are dealing with? Experienced divers with on the job training in reading sonar? Apparently if they know it's been down there... why haven't they removed it just for the negative environmental impact alone.
If I didn't know better, those Florida boys in the big red truck didn't seem to want to get wet! They allllll had to show up, but it took them awhile to wanna get involved.
Keep searching Britton... Keep on doing the good work. Families out there appreciate your efforts.
Safe diving y'all... Blessings
Awesome job Britain and Mike
That first firefighter needs to go back to Congeniality School, what a jerk! "Get that camera out of my face", it wasn't in his face, what a jerk! Then, argued about how long the vehicle had been underwater. It didn't look like it had been down there for years, it looked pretty new to me. What a jerk!
Brit, you are brillient. Thanks for all you do. Blessings to you both. Remember, always safety first. 🙂
Man, the first group of guys were rather grumpy. They didn’t want to mess with it, so it seemed.
Hello 👋 Sweet Britain & Mike. I love 💕 how excited you guys are.
I pray this guy is found. That redMitzubi hasn't been in there very long. It's still shiny.
Oh I had hoped it was Stephen. But good job Brit, Mike , Grace and the Broward County Fire Rescue, Broward Sheriff office, Broward Dive Team! Y'all make this old lady proud of my old hometown. 👏 👏
Always good to see Gracie! Keep up the good work fellows!
For the record, a few years ago I fell asleep driving, probably at about 50 mph and my car tore out a guard rail (over a large canal). Within two weeks it was replaced by the county and you would have never known that a car went through it.
Great job
The firemen thought he knew it all ,piece of crap.
Appreciate you guys, hope God blesses you.
Wow they are rude for a fire department crazy
Good job guys
Wasn’t there a second car too?
Wonder if that firefighter would have been so rude had it been one of his family
Fine he didn’t want to be filmed but, get that camera out of my face ! What ever happened to manners
So sorry it wasnt the car you were looking for another great video 👍🏻
Thank you Briten for what I r doing. God Bless you
👋 friend,
First, EXCELLENT videography,, super clear.
Next... great find. Not who you're looking for but a find is a WIN in your column.
Next... the fella in the store, was that MacKrell? If so, he took several missteps, could have been under influence, might have stumbled over his own foot.
Next,,did the one fireman ask for camera out of face?
Great work guys.
Grace, always good to see you out there
Jan, 40ish from Chattanooga.
Hey folks - I even thought the fire department would be happy to get a poor little kitty cat out of a tree
You guys are doing a great work
Just. Found. Your. Channel
And. Video. It’s. Great😊
Great job brother
Good job give up the good work And everybody was very professional and nice good fire department then Police respond
Hey team your big hearts and dedication to help others is awesome keep the faith love live besafe.
Britain, thanks for what you do! Just curious about the second car. Was that recovered?
Thanks 😊
Thanks for your help....i live right over there
Nice work guys ❤ God bless
Well done u guys they should of let u dive...Watching from the UK....Grace looks adoreable...
Another vehicle contaminating our waterways pulled. Great job guys.
i will never understand why fire or police have a bad taste in there mouth when if come to cars in the water ,, i mean come on it could mean anything . not only that it is not good to have it in the water any ways , thank you for caring and sharing
Good job ! I just started following and fine we have equipment in common and some that I have been considering
